I also can volunteer uploading 0.7.1 as part of my kodi work.
How is dav1d blocking kodi work? Once dav1d is in the archive in ffmpeg
is uploaded with dav1d support enabled, won't kodi also automatically
have dav1d support? If they kodi is using it directly, is there no
option to disable it until it is available?
CheersAlso, is it a good idea to reach Joerg Jaspert directly and kindly ask for review?
Why am I asking this: I have two pending packages (libudfread & shairplay).
At the same time, I am preparing full Kodi binary addon archive (84 source packages).
I am carefully investigating copyrights and perform builds and tests in the publuc unofficial repo
(see relevant d-multimedia discussiob). However, I don't want to wait YEARS after Kodi reaches
release. Instead, I am using my sparevtime to keep packaging ready as development of Kodi upstream
progresses.
With such enormous waiting times and no understandingbof how to solve it gracefully, the whole project
might become a waste of time and I obviously try avoiding it.

Can you please package it?
dav1d is in the NEW queue since 1,5 years. It was rejected after 1
year in the NEW queue and I still don't have news about the last
attempt. I am losing motivation for this package, I will probably
convert this ITP to RFP...
I guess the rejection is what you quoted in
https://bugs.debian.org/916333#25
Thanks, btw, for quoting like that to make conversations with ftpmasters
more transparent. Much appreciated!
Did you try re-upload since the rejection? If not, why not?
If that was the only reason given by ftpmasters for rejecting, then I
would suggest to simply a) make sure that the licensing/patenting
situation as you understand it is explicitly laid out in
debian/copyright file, and then b) re-release the package.
When re-uploaded, I can suggest to try nudge ftpmasters by logging into
irc channel #debian-ftp and kindly request a review of the package.
If you haven't given up yet, then would you be interesting in
maintaining the package collaboratively? I can offer to help if you
would be interested in doing so e.g. in the Multimedia team.
If you have given up already, then I can offer to take over.
Kind regards,
- Jonas
